Hello, I have a few quilts from Lancaster PA for auction on Ebay. Is this the right group to post a listing about them? I don't want to break any of the group rules, or offend anyone. Please let me know. These are beautiful quilts and I'm just looking for a good place to let folks know about...

I have a printed block that measures 7 1/2 X 8 3/4. I'm thinking about doing a bunch of different borders to go around the block to make it into a nice wallhanging. I'd like to do seminole, as well as a couple small plain borders, and I'd love for the border to help the rest to really...

I just got a call about an Ebay transaction from several years ago. DH was ripped off for $20. Turns out lots of folks got scammed by this guy so someone took the thing and ran with it. I guess he has was found guilty and served at least some jail time and is paying folks back! Good to know that...

Tonight, I finally finished that horrible quilt with the glowbug thread. Hooray! I'll get around to pics of it eventually, but for now I'm just going to bask in the gladness of it being DONE! I sincerely thought I wouldn't be able to finish this quilt, but a lovely woman who teaches at the LQS...

It's amazing how much more enjoyable little kids make the holiday celebrations. I have nephew who is 20 mo. Christmas this year at my folks (yesterday) was so much fun. We all enjoyed watching the boys (nephew and my 3 yr old) play together. It was the first time my nephew played in the snow! ...

This is just a bad year for illness, isn't it? DD woke up yesterday with a fever, and it still hasn't broken this morning. She was vomiting yesterday, too, which has me worried. We're having to force liquids and are struggling to keep her bundled up....she just doesn't want the blankets. She...

finished the last of the flannel jammies this morning. Pica can be found in either of my phot albums (well, they are for Christmas, are a sewing project, and are being modeled by Rebekah, so....). Also in the sewing and family albums are pic of the 3 QIs that have already covered the tree skirt...

I know this suggestion may be too late for this year, but I was just wrapping up my quilts that are going to family members for Christmas and I wanted to include laundering instructions along with the gift. I was a bit leery about the black and white quilt even though I had pre-washed all...

My darling DH just brought home a 7' pink tree for me! We had looked at them last week, but I said they were too expensive. He said he went back today, and they were on sale, plus he got the floor model, so they knocked off another 20%. Oh, it looks just perfect in the Fab 50s room. Why don't you...

Yippee! I made one fancy pillowcase for my oldest son for Christmas! It came out so nice, and it's cute, all in baseball fabrics. Friday afternoon I will make one for my youngest son. He is a soccer man. Wow, that was fun!! Ann

I also would like sewing machine advise. My current machine is working fine, but it is over 25 years old so it doesn't have any of the nice new options, and some of the built in stitches aren't working properly. It works fine for piecing and not bad for quilting, but it is extremely heavy. And a...

We closed escrow yesterday and just got word that the new house funded and recorded about an hour ago today so it's Officially Ours!!!!! My First House, Woo-Hoo!!! Pics in New House Album. Everyone we dealt with were great! They really had to hurry to get this finished before the holidays so...

NAYY but thought someone in So. CAl. might be interested. There is a handyquilter (spelled wrong I would say) for sale in the classified ads in the Riverside Press enterprise this morning. Don't know anything else about it but that it is $450.00. Might be online at their...

Hi All, I was wondering how many Featherweight owners are there in this group? I have just made the winning bid on one on EBay and I'm very eager to get my hands on the machine! -- Bonnie NJ

Okay. Think I am on my final run and I need some asssistance here. Posting to everyone I can think off quilt expression 2044. Dual voltage, gazillion stitches (180) ithink (you all probably know more than i do). Come is quilting table, qilting food, straight needle plate, free motion foot (and...

Nature Recently saw a pattern somewhere in cyber space for 'Dancing Chooks' (I think). Have now discovered my DIL loves chooks. Can anyone point me in the right direction for this or simular patterns. Or cows. Dot
